Functional description
Long non-coding RNA breast cancer antiestrogen resistance 4 (lncRNA BCAR4) is an independent factor on the survival prognosis of patients with multiple cancers. However, the role of lncRNA BCAR4 in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) remains unknown. Here, we unraveled that lncRNA BCAR4 was upregulated in ESCC and predicted poor prognosis. Functionally, lncRNA BCAR4 knockdown induced cell apoptosis and G1/S arrest, while inhibited cell proliferation and migration in vitro; conversely, overexpressing lncRNA BCAR4 promoted proliferation and metastasis. Mechanistically, lncRNA BCAR4 sponged miR-139-3p to upregulate ELAVL1, thereby inhibiting p53/p21 pathway in ESCC cells. In conclusion, lncRNA BCAR4 promotes ESCC tumorigenesis via regulating p53/p21 signaling pathway and develops a brand-new biomarker and medicine target for ESCC.
